This is because he’s a cancer patient and needs to be comfortable at home. However, this has caused some inconvenience to his neighbours in the unit above, who have to bear with condensation on their floors. The 64-year-old resident in question lives in a flat in Block 258A Compassvale Road, reported Shin Min Daily News. Identified only as Mr Huang, he said he was diagnosed with end-stage liver cancer in 2020 and had to sell off his house to pay for his treatment. Thus, he moved into his current rented flat in the block a few months ago. Upon moving in, Mr Huang installed nine aircon units in the flat, despite it only having four rooms. While there are two of them in the master bedroom, the other two bedrooms have “just” one each. The living room, however, has five aircon units. He paid S$13,000 to install the appliances. Mr Huang told Shin Min that the aircons are turned off when he’s not at home during the daytime. However, when he’s at home, he turns them all on at the same time, set to a frigid 18°C. He explained that the extreme temperature is due to the hot weather, and it’s how he can feel comfortable at home. As for his electricity bills, he claimed that they exceeded S$1,000 per month at the previous residences he’d rented. But he’s cut down a lot on his usage now, so his bill for last month was a comparatively cheap S$350. While many Singaporeans don’t wear much at home, Mr Huang apparently wears several layers of clothes due to the icy conditions in his flat. When a Shin Min reporter visited him on Sunday (21 Aug), he was wearing a green sweater over a blue long-sleeved shirt, and three or four layers underneath that. However, he was also wearing a pair of black shorts. The chill from his unit could be felt from the corridor outside. Mr Huang explained that he’s also afraid of the cold. But for the sake of his comfort, he apparently has no choice but to turn on the aircon and wear more clothes. He also said keeping the body warm would help improve his immunity — important due to his illness. For the full story, please visit the website above. TLDR: End stage cancer patient uses a total of 9 aircons in his 4 room hdb flat. Unit above have to mop the floor multiple times a day due to condensation. We are potentially looking at a system 5 and a system 4 installed in a 4 room HDB flat. This is just about the legal threshold of having two compressors in one space. I've read that cancer patients may experience hot flashes or night sweats as common side effects of cancer treatments or chemotherapy so that might explain the excessive number of aircons. But is there a need for 9 aircons though?

Where got reasonably price service to clean and reseal the headlight. Notice some condensation on the inside face of the transparent casing... before my ballast goes kaput. TIA.

is it normal to see condensation at the headlamps? I one see one side having water droplets.

Hi bros, i noticed my headlamps have some condensation especially during rainy weather. I was told due to cold air against the heat of the lights plus the headlamps are not vacuum tight, etc, creating condensation. Is this normal ? My car is 1 day old , so ... quite concerned. thanks!

This only occured on my right side I never mod HID or open the light leh Should be under warranty right?

Aircon not cold and dripping water due to condensation? How? Whats wrong ? How to fix? Is it no more gas? Have to go pump gas? This kind of symptom is what problem?

have you like gone out for a late supper (3am?) and as you drive back, your car fogs up almost totally? windscreen and sides especially. (the back is fine, there's the demister). quite jialat for me. the wipers don't really seem to work. i'm also afraid of scratching the windscreen if i use the wipers too often. and these days it's quite warm and humid. i hate driving with the windows down. (i'll sweat almost immediately when waiting at a junction.) has anyone got a solution to this?
